My daughter is going to be 6 in Oct, and yesterday I told her not to answer the door for anyone while i took a shower. she was expecting her friend to come by after school, and i told her that even if she sees that it is her, NOT to answer the door, and she could go out after i got out of the shower. she persisted to want to answer the door , so i told her that regardless if its her friend, someone could come up to the door and take her, and i wouldn't know because i am in the shower. well last night she woke up with a nightmare, that she didn't want to talk about at first, but was hysterical, and when i finally got it out of her, she said that in her dream she was taken by someone. I didnt tell her that to scare her, but to only let her know it COULD happen, and that is why i tell her not to do it. is there a better way i could have went around it? or is it something that she needs to truthfully know?
